“A Michigan man pleaded guilty today to one count of committing a hate crime by attempting to carry out a mass killing. According to court documents, Mack Davis, 22, of Owosso, admitted that he attempted to conduct a mass killing of individuals at a political party headquarters and a nearby bar in the Eastern District of Michigan because he associated both locations with gay people.”

“According to court documents, from at least July 2023 through June 2024, Davis accessed search engines and social media sites to research, post about, and pay tribute to mass killers, and wrote about dozens of mass killers in journals and on other items in his home. During that period, Davis also began to plot his own mass killing, by, among other things, drafting lists of weapons and tactical gear he owned and intended to acquire for use in his mass killing. By June, Davis had crossed off every item on the list of weapons and tactical gear he intended to acquire, and had amassed an arsenal that included two firearms, magazines, hundreds of rounds of ammunition, a crossbow and arrows, assorted bomb-making parts, smoke grenades, tactical gear and clothing and several knives. Davis inscribed one of the knives with the anti-gay slur, ‘F*GGOT Killer.'”

“From April through June, Davis solidified his plan to commit the mass killing. Among other acts, Davis posted on a social media site that he intended to commit a mass killing at a political party headquarters, which Davis referred to as ‘Location 1,’ that Davis wrote was ‘filled with far-left liberal, f*ggot scum.’ Davis wrote that he would continue the mass killing at ‘Location 2,’ a nearby bar that Davis wrote was ‘a f*ggot bar.’ Davis researched both locations online, conducted physical surveillance of both locations and posted about his research and surveillance on the social media site. During that period, Davis also vandalized two cars that belonged to his neighbors, whom he knew to be gay, by spray-painting the word ‘f*g’ on one of the cars. Days later, Davis also test-fired one of his firearms, an illegal short-barreled rifle, by firing approximately 60 bullets into several of his neighbors’ properties, including one of the cars that he had previously vandalized,” says a Justice Department press release on the unspecified political party targeted by this member of an unspecified political movement, which leaves a big mystery as to Davis and his targets’ politics.

In all seriousness, you really have to wonder why they even fucking bother trying to anonymize the intended victims when they also included the “far-left liberal” part of his threats.
